Pride and Prejudice: GCSE English Illustrated Study Edition

Description “It is a truth universally acknowledged that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife” So begins Pride and Prejudice, Austen’s masterwork of a novel, in equal parts love story, social commentary and comedy of manners. There have been few books in the history of literature that have been taken more to heart by the British people, enchanted as they are by the twists and turns of Regency England. The story of Elizabeth Bennet and her slow discovery of love cannot fail to win over audiences, as she deals with issues of manners, upbringing, morality, education, and marriage in the society of the landed gentry at the dawn of the nineteenth century. With a cast of now iconic characters, such as Darcy, Bingley and Wickham, allow yourself to be transported into the world of Longbourn. Does love really conquer all?
